The Human Chorionic Gonadotropin or hCG is a hormone that is produced in pregnant women. Doctors use hCG levels to determine pregnancy and the stage of pregnancy. HCG levels increase as the pregnancy proceeds. The hCG level doubling time is used to assess the progress of the pregnancy.

Normally hCG level is measured through blood tests. Serial hCG tests are two blood tests done one after the other, 2 or 3 days apart within which the hCG level is expected to double. This is called the hCG doubling time. Using this information you can determine the ideal hCG levels that you are required to have at different stages of your pregnancy.
